Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.17270 of 2023(2) dt.10-04-2023 2/2 has submitted that petitioner is husband of the informant and has been falsely implicated in this case. He has neither demanded any thing from the informant nor tortured his wife ever before. In fact, petitioner is still ready to keep his wife with full honour and dignity as asserted is para 10 of the petition. Petitioner is languishing in judicial custody since 13.12.2022. Learned counsel for the informant and learned APP appearing for the State has opposed the prayer of Bail. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and considering the facts and circumstances of the case, this court is inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. The above named petitioner is directed to be enlarged on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Rs. ten thousand only) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned SDJM, Darbhanga in connection with Mahila P.S. Case No. 64 of 2018. However, trial court is directed to make all efforts to settle the dispute between the parties.
